Tax-free Delaware is the whole pitch here. Delaware Prep Center sits in Newark and is Amazon SPN verified, with no sign-up or monthly fees and per-service pricing only, which keeps it accessible for sellers who do not want to commit to a retainer. Labeling runs $0.50 per unit and oversized bundling $0.75 per unit, with storage at $0.60 per cubic foot per month, 14 days free, and no Q4 surcharges. It is set up for import-heavy operators: it handles overseas shipments and prices container receiving at $300 for a 20-foot, $500 for a 40-foot, and $575 for a 45-foot, with the pallet fee waived on Amazon-approved pallets. A 1,000-item monthly minimum activates an account, and the published turnaround is 48 to 72 hours. Services span receiving, inspection, FNSKU labeling, polybagging, bundling, storage, forwarding, and merchant fulfillment across Amazon FBA and FBM. Google rating is 4.6 from 33 reviews.
